Principal (academia)

Normanby, Ryedale
Normanby is a village and civil parish in the Ryedale district of North Yorkshire, England. It is about west of Pickering. It lies on the main road between Malton and Kirkbymoorside. In the old days Normanby had 14 alehouses and was a major stopping point due to its location halfway between Teesside and Humberside. These days Normanby has only one pub and a church. All the houses in Normanby are built along the busy main road. The bridge to the south of the village was built in the mid 18th century and is narrow, so in recent years it has been the scene of many accidents. The bridge takes traffic over the River Seven which runs to the east of the village on its way from Rosedale to the River Rye further south. History The manor of Normanby is mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086. It was granted by the Crown to St. Mary's Abbey, York. At the dissolution of the monasteries, Henry VIII granted the manor to William Romesden of Longley and Richard Vavasour of Ripon. It was ...

The churches that formed the Presbyterian Church of Australia were the Presbyterian Churches of New South Wales, V ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Seminary Presidents
A seminary, school of theology, theological seminary, or divinity school is an educational institution for educating students (sometimes called ''seminarians'') in scripture, theology, generally to prepare them for ordination to serve as clergy, in academics, or mostly in Christian ministry. The English word is taken from the Latin ''seminarium'', translated as ''seed-bed'', an image taken from the Council of Trent document ''Cum adolescentium aetas'' which called for the first modern seminaries. In the United States, the term is currently used for graduate-level theological institutions, but historically it was used for high schools. History The establishment of seminaries in modern times resulted from Roman Catholic reforms of the Counter-Reformation after the Council of Trent. These Tridentine seminaries placed great emphasis on spiritual formation and personal discipline as well as the study, first of philosophy as a base, and, then, as the final crown, theology.

People From Ryedale (district)
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...
